Jamal stands on a dock 1.5 meters above the surface of the water. a trout swims 4.8 meters below jamal. what is the position of the truck compared to the surface of the water?

Jamal stands on a dock 1.5 meters above the surface of the water.A trout swims 4.8 meters below Jamal.What is the depth of the trout compared to the surface of the water?

The position of the trout is 3.3 meters below the surface of the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Jamal's position from the surface of the water = 1.5 meters

Trout's position with reference to Jamal's position =4.8 meters (Below)

Trout's position from the surface of the water is unknown.

Let

Trouts position be 's'.

And the surface of the water as equivalent to the origin (0,0) co-ordinate of the Cartesian.

Below water we will assign negative height as it lies on negative y-axis (below the origin).

We have to find 's',which can be known from adding both the values.

So the trout is swimming 3.3 meters below the surface of the water.

We can say that it is below the water so it can also be written as negative 3.3 (according to our coordinates).

The position of the trout is 3.3 meters below the surface of the water.

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity".   that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both.   the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.   this has important considerations for the human body's comfort.   when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.   if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature.   evaporation is a cooling process.   when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature.   when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases.   in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.   the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases.   the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions.   there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
